Well, this pretty much locks the Kings into 3rd place in the Pacific. They need to make up 2 points in 4 games on the Oilers, and the Oilers finish with 3/4 against teams that are trying to lose. The Kings would realistically probably have to win out to catch the Oilers, and even that may not be enough.

I hope EDM can overtake Vegas, I'd much rather see Vegas in the 1st round than have to face McDavid.

Same. VGK has big questions in goal. Much rather see them than EDM.. though I dont think EDM looks that great.. cant do anything 5x5 and we handled them fine earlier in the year when not down 3 big players

If that's the case the team would be better off just shutting down everyone with an injury for a few weeks.

We lost to a good team. They hardly “beat the shit out of us”. We are missing some key pieces and as I’ve said many time, I like our chances against anyone….when healthy.

one point of criticism for me.

Byfield‘s body language is just shit to me. He looks overwhelmed and timid half the time, especially the last week or so. He has skill, but he needs to really up his game for the playoffs.

Moving guys out of the slot matters - you need strength for that. He cant body anyone. Its weird he;s not short but he bounces off of guys.

I think you need to watch more pk, literally no team in the NHL teaches their dmen to move guys out of the slot on a pk

Strength matters - tying up sticks takes strength. He seems weak. What do you like about his game? I dont see it.
 
Lets not get too far distraught over this loss. Considering that Edmonton beat us twice in a row when we were without our leading scorer, 2nd best defenseman, and one of our best goal scorers, they don't scare me. If we had lost both these games and were at 100%, then I would be worried. I want Edmonton in the first round. If we can get Fiala and Anderson back, I like our chances.

How is this tolerated? Last time I made the most innocuous comment on a GDT on the Blackhawk forum I got instantly hit with moderation. Why the hell we allowing trolls here?

We only have one regular mod on this board, others often have several

People need to actually report things, I know we have a habit of sorting things out amongst ourselves so no one uses that button (speaking from experience on both sides), but get used to using it if you actually want the bad intention guests gone.

He's a p***y. And I'd tell him that to his face. I'm the same size. It would be two big guys that don't want to fight

Need him to be chippy at a minimum

I hope Blake offers up a gift basket to the Ducks asking them to play Mcdavid hard. Perhaps someone like Beaulieu has the stones to give him a physical night unlike our lot.
